Early Capitol Records Pressing Plant, Winchester, pressing (as identified by ━◁ in runouts).
All runout info etched except Bell Sound stamp.

This is almost identical to Winchester pressing Imagine but on this variant, the publishing text on side 2 label states ""OH MY LOVE" Published By Maclen Music, Inc./Ono Music. - BMI" (not "Copyright Also Claimed By...").

Custom Apple label with John's face on Side 1. "Mfd. By Apple Records Inc." text along bottom perimeter of both labels.
Label titles this release "Imagine: John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band (With The Flux Fiddlers*)"

Cover is glossy-laminated on both sides.

Comes with custom die-cut inner sleeve with lyrics, photos and credits.

Comes with three inserts:
* Poster of Lennon playing on his white piano, measures approximately 24" x 36".
* 4" x 6" postcard of either Lennon straddling a pig, or a different image of a nymph-like photo of Yoko and Lennon (copies may come with one of the two, or both).

Imagine the clouds dripping. Dig a hole in your garden to put them in. Yoko '63. (Printed on back paper cover lower left side)

In runouts, "SF" mark denotes vinyl mastered by Sam Feldman from Capitol, not George Peckham from Apple as indicated on cover.

Track title variations on inner sleeve:
A5: "I Don't Wanna Be A Soldier Mamma I Don't Wanna Die"
B1: "Gimme Some Truth"
